Quality health care is the degree to which health care services for individuals and populations increase the likelihood of desired health outcomes and are consistent with current professional knowledge - Institute of Medicine (IOM) - Centers for Medicare and Medicaid (CMS) What is Patient Safety? Simply, The prevention of harm to patients Six Aims of a High Quality System l Safe avoiding injuries to patients from the care that is supposed to help them. l Effective providing services based on scientific knowledge to all who could benefit and refraining from providing services to those not likely to benefit (avoiding underuse and overuse). l Patient-centered providing care that is respectful of and responsive to individual patient preferences, needs, and values and ensuring that patient values guide all clinical decisions. l Timely reducing waits and sometimes harmful delays for both those who receive and those who give care. l Efficient avoiding waste, in particular waste of equipment, supplies, ideas, and energy. l Equitable providing care that does not vary in quality because of personal characteristics, such as gender, ethnicity, geographic location, and socioeconomic status. l (Institute of Medicine, 2001) 2

The Affordable Care Act further requires the Secretary to adopt the three National Quality Forum (NQF)-endorsed 30-day Risk-Standardized Readmission measures for acute myocardial infarction (AMI), heart failure (HF), and pneumonia (PN) for the Hospital Readmissions Reduction Program beginning October The Excess Readmission Ratios will be used to determine the payment adjustment for each eligible hospital. Hospital Readmissions Reduction Program If a hospital performs better than the average hospital that admitted similar patients (that is, patients with similar risk factors for readmission such as age and comorbidities), the ratio will be less than If a hospital performs worse than average, the ratio will be greater than # eligible # Predicted Expected Excess National Crude discharges readmissions Readmission Readmission Readmission Readmission (Jul08-Jun11) Rate Rate Ratio Rate AMI % 18.2% % HF % 24.1% % PN % 18.5% % FY2013 Readmission Payment Adjustment Factor =
